Looking to join a top-notch software engineering team?  We're one of the fastest growing startups in the Pittsburgh area and one of the hottest companies in the world.

We're looking to find awesome engineers to help us grow.  We're currently seeking mid-level engineers who have a track record of building user facing features, architecting and scaling the front-end of web applications, and interacting with RESTful web services.

Technologies we use include AngularJS, Javascript/jQuery, Compass/Sass, Bootstrap, MySQL, Symfony, Doctrine ORM, Apache Solr, Redis, Memcached, Amazon Web Services, Behat/Mink, and Selenium.

As a Front-End Software Engineer, you will:

• Help build and enhance the user-facing portion of our SaaS web application
• Help make critical decisions that shape our technology stack
• Build features that work across all types of devices
• Work in an agile scrum team with other engineers

Most of these should describe you:

• Experience developing client-side web applications (server-side experience is a plus)
• Exceptional problem solving abilities
• Track record of successful software projects
• Experience with responsive web design
• Experience with at least one modern Javascript framework (AngularJS, Ember.js, Backbone.js)
• Passion for writing reliable, efficient, testable, and elegant code
• Experience with TDD/BDD

Examples of questions you should be able to easily solve

1) What does the Javascript code below show in the popup alert box?  If you change "x = 6;" to "var x = 6;" then what shows in the popup alert box?  Why?

x = 5;
function f() {
    x = 6;
}
f();
alert(x);

2) Given the URL, http://mywebsite.com/[controller]/[action]/[param 1]/.../[param n], write a simple function (in any programming language) to break it into components delineated by single ‘/’ character.

3) Describe the lifecyle of a request to http://mywebsite.com/jobs/edit/1 from front-end to middle/API to backend.  What kind of software architecture would be needed at each step?

4) If you have a page in your web app which is slow to load, what are the first three things that come to mind to explore to get at why it's slow? How do you dive in to each to test?
